Gieson and McKillun received the right to play in the finals by win ning trie tilth set of a postponed matcn in tne morning from Harry Koch and Joe Adams by the score of 6-0. In the Fowell-Williams match, the champion was never in any dan ger of losing a set. Had he not let up a bit in the last set, Williams would have gone with only one game for the entire match. Powell Outguesses Veteran. Powell hit the corners and kept Williams running. Alternating straight drives with his cross-shots, Powell outguessed the veteran, and easily defeated him after the first few games. But a word for Wil liams. He played splendid ball. He knows the game, but he lacked the speed of his younger opponent. Ralph took the first four sets. Williams took the fifth game, but Powell took the next two and the set. Doubles More Interesting. The doubles were far more inter esting than the singles' finals, at 'least, during the first four games, when the Powell-Adams machine was just warming up- That was the only time Gieson and McKilluo were in me umanans class, uma- lia took the first game on the cham pion's serve. The visitors took the second and fourth games. Then Bill and Ralph just naturally took the next four games and set. The final game went to deuce a couple of times, but powell and Adams put on the finishing touches 'and won the state championship. .rowell and Adams took the net throughout the match, the visitors attempting to lob to keep them in the bickcourt. Powell was more erratic in the doubles than he was in the singles. McKillup and Gieson netted many balls.
